Gas tank sending unit

I have the orignal tank and sending unit behind the seat but I have autometer gauges. Is there anything I can do to my sending unit so the gauge works correctly? Thank you.

Re: Gas tank sending unit

Kenny, what year model do you have. '66 is supposed to be 0-90 ohm, which may be what your autometer gauge is, but my '66 had an earlier 0-30 ohm sender. If you have a '65 or earlier, you should have the 0-30 unit. What is your gauge doing (or not doing)?

Actually, the 0-90 ohm sender started in 67. There was someone posting on this site they could change the 30 ohm senders to 90 ohms.

My gauge reads empty with the key on and full with the key off. I remember sending an email to a guy that re did them but I cant find the info I printed off.
